🚨 INSIDE MAN UNITED TRAINING: Glasner Lined Up as Amorim Faces Sack
Manchester United could be on the brink of a managerial shake-up, with INEOS expected to announce the dismissal of Ruben Amorim today.
Reports suggest Oliver Glasner has emerged as the leading candidate to take over, with the Austrian coach spotted at a training session ahead of United’s clash with Sunderland tomorrow.
Amorim Under Fire
United’s dismal start to the 2025/26 campaign has left Amorim under huge pressure. The Red Devils sit 14th in the Premier League with just seven points from six matches, including last weekend’s damaging 3-1 defeat at Brentford.
Though the board publicly backed him, results have fueled calls for change, and insiders believe his position is now untenable.
Glasner the Front-Runner
Names such as Gareth Southgate, Andoni Iraola, and even Michael Carrick (as interim) have been floated, but Glasner has quickly become the top choice.
The Austrian has impressed at Crystal Palace, guiding them into mid-table stability, but BBC Sport reports he has yet to sign a new deal offered by Palace earlier this summer. Sources claim Glasner is unconvinced by the club’s transfer ambition, and insiders suggest the chances of him staying are “remote.”
That uncertainty has given United a major boost in their pursuit.
Competition for His Signature
Glasner’s availability has not gone unnoticed across Europe. Bayern Munich are also keeping tabs on the 51-year-old, although current boss Vincent Kompany is not facing the same scrutiny Amorim is under at Old Trafford.
Palace, meanwhile, remain determined to persuade Glasner to stay, but his public frustration over their summer business hints at a looming departure.
The Bottom Line
With Amorim clinging to his job and INEOS reportedly ready to act, United’s focus has shifted firmly to Glasner. His proven Premier League credentials and potential availability make him the frontrunner in what could be one of the season’s most dramatic managerial changes.
A decision could be made within hours.
